The Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) on Wednesday appealed to all film producers to call out their shooting bookings in the Maldives. The press release issued by FWICE urged the makers to choose similar locations in India for the shooting purpose and contribute towards developing tourism in India. The decision to boycott Maldives by FWICE came after the growing row between India and Maldives over the derogatory statement issued by three ministers of Maldives. FWICE has also condemned the ‘irresponsible’ and ‘ridiculous’ remarks of the ministers of Maldives passed on globally respected Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
